    This hotel was awsome!! Surfside Beach Oceanfront Hotel (Formally known as Days Inn) was a great place to stay. The hotel is in the heart of the Surfside Beach Entertainment District and has much to do around it. The hotel has a pool, hot tub and a great miniature mart downstairs. The rooms where small but clean. And parking is free. If you are looking to stay near Surfside beach and the new Surfside fishing pier, this is a great place to stay. Highly Recommend!!

    I have stayed at this place several times over the years. The renovation a few years ago was done tastefully and in keeping with the needs of folks staying at the beach (e.g. no carpet in the hallways or rooms--great for sandy feet). Well decorated with large photos of past expressions on this location. Nice. The building is an older design that would no longer be built: long halls, smaller rooms, and balconies that do not face the ocean (side views from each one) and they are rather small. However, for the price it's a prime location, with all the amenities, comfy beds, hot shower, safe/fridge/microwave/coffee maker in the room, plus a large lobby to grab snacks, read the paper, or make some Starbucks coffee for a nominal fee. No breakfast served. The last little nicety was the free box of saltwater taffy upon check-in. My Mom would always buy saltwater taffy when we came to the beach, so this was a warm surprise. I squirreled mine away and later sent it to her as a remembrance of finer days. If you're looking for a solid place to stay, without all the big hotel amenities and swag, I say "give 'em a whirl." Sleep here.

    Clean, nicely renovated rooms on the beach for an unbeatable price. The entire hotel has been nicely renovated, and service was great. They have a convenient self-serve snack area by the lobby and some nice public (guest) seating areas. Secure key-access on the elevator was comforting. The room keys are shell-shaped, which is a cute little bonus. Great location - direct beach access, next to the pier, walking distance to a few restaurants. We paid a little extra for a balcony and a premium view, but I doubt the 'premium' view as worth it. I think you can see the ocean from any room. We could also see the parking lot and some restaurants next door. This is mostly a residential area, so it's generally quiet. Unfortunately, at 4 a.m. both mornings, we heard the backup beeping of the restaurant delivery truck, even with the balcony door closed. Overall, it was clean and inexpensive, and I would stay here again.

    Don't recommend. Construction. Partial view instead of full "premium view" that I booked. Plenty of rooms with the full view, we just didn't get what we paid for...Wi-Fi barely works. Smart TV doesn't work at all. We were duped. Try another place in the area.

    Pros: The staff was very helpful and check in was quick. The lobby area is very clean and coffee and water are available to guests. The beach access is great and there are showers to rinse off the sand as soon as you return. There was an issue with the faucet running, maintenance came right up and checked it within a few minutes and advised it would need to be replaced. He was able to turn it off and it only ran a little bit for the rest of the night. Cons: The room and bathroom in need of cleaning and maintenance. There were hairs, dirt and pink mold in the tub. The wall of the shower enclosure does not meet the tub and there was no caulking to reduce mold growth. The carpet had many stains and felt oily to the touch. My family decided to keep our shoes on at all times. The ice machine had standing water in the tray underneath with what appeared to be floating dirt and dead bugs.

    I loved the resort it was next to the ocean. Restaurants nearby didn't need the pool the beach was right there. The room was very clean I would say almost perfect.

    We had prepaid for the hotel two months in advance, my niece was getting married on the beach North Myrtle Beach, anyway we were met a the entrance by car attendant/ parking security to inform us where to park as not to get towed. Went to front desk and received our room keys all information of the keys would work, lobby was nice, there was an area for snacks and basic items if needed to be purchased. Arrived on 7 floor, my key did not work, I think I might have disengaged it by placing with cell phone. Opened door, nice size queen beds, balcony door with partial view of the ocean. They are doing construction of building a pier. This was No fault of hotel. Anyway room was clean, however my wife noticed on one of her pillow cases, there were dark black spots on it. We don't know if they were old or just spots one could not get out! Basic set up, microwave, refrigerator and safe! My wife also thought the carpet seemed stickey on her barefoot. Tv was easy to navigate with DirectTv. The water went from 0-100 degrees in 5 seconds be carful if you have small children. Staff was friendly and attentive to our needs and customers while our stay!

    We stayed here for 4 nights right before Memorial Day weekend with my husband, our 19-month-old…read moreson, and my sister (who helped with occasional babysitting). We ended up loving it so much that we decided to extend our stay for an extra night. The location was honestly perfect. There was a Walmart nearby, the boardwalk and boardwalk mall were close, and there were plenty of restaurants within a short distance. The beach access was in a great spot, and the entire area felt very clean and safe. The outside pool area was modern, well maintained, and very inviting. The breakfast advertised in the lobby definitely lived up to expectations. Every morning there was a fresh breakfast along with a fun waffle-making station, which we really enjoyed. The staff throughout the hotel were extremely friendly and welcoming. There was also a restaurant on the main floor with a great atmosphere, and the food was very good. There were only two downsides during our stay. The kids' splash pad -- one of the main reasons we booked this hotel -- was unfortunately out of service the entire time due to needing a new pump. We understood that these things happen. The other issue was that the rugs in the room did not seem very clean. We ended up keeping our shoes on in the room, so it wasn't a huge issue for us personally. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely book this hotel again

Lots of seating, fun accommodations for children, and pool towel rentals are also available. Direct access from the pool to the beach. Loved there was a spot to rinse off the sand from beach upon entering the pool area. One of the staff members gave great restaurant recommendations. Now, the bad. You have to pay for parking. It was additional $60 for 2 nights, but through a QRC code, not on your hotel bill. There was an extra $100 (exact) tacked onto my bill after checking in. Nobody told me where this $100 came from. So, I'm now assuming a security deposit? Will it be refunded when I check out? I asked 2 different representatives, and nobody directly told me what it was for. (Edit: it was refunded, but I wished somebody said so) I would have cancelled, but was not in a position to find another hotel. The a/c unit barely worked. We were sweating during the night. The paint on the ceiling above my shower was peeling off. That's in the video I posted. We were on the 4th floor, and had to go to the 3rd for ice. It would have been nice to know that as well. We were given a wristband to wear for use of the amenities, but nobody was wearing them, and nobody was checking for them either. Overall, I won't be staying here again.

Arrived on a Wednesday (checked in at 4 pm) received a call from Carly at front desk on Thursday stating we would have to move rooms our last night booked because the owners of the unit was arriving Saturday or get a refund and leave Saturday at 10 am. We spent 1 hour and 45 minutes of the time we could be on the beach with our family, packing and moving. We decided that morning to pack up everything not needed and just use the last room (which was now a 1 bathroom and no bedroom just 2 beds when you walk in overlooking the pool) to shower and store our belongs (snacks and clean clothes) until we departed at 5 pm that afternoon bringing our vacation shorter that reserved. To receive fresh linens you had to exchange linens on the second floor from 10 am to 12 pm ONLY ON WEDNESDAY. Since checking in on a Wednesday and 6 people in our part and only 4 towels/wash clothes and face towels in room we were out of luck on fresh towels. Had to do laundry each day for towels that cost and extra $8 per load to wash and dry. No vacuum in room to keep floors clean with no daily room check by staff. When taking out your own trash it had to go to a dumpster located on a busy street. Floors were filithy had to wear socks or shoes the whole time or your feet would be black on the bottom. It is obvious their owners take priority over renters so do not waste your hard earned money on staying at this HOTEL( not a resort). Location may be great but the place is a disaster. BEWARE!

This is a solid 3/3.5 hotel; don't expect any frills or extra commodities. You get a clean bed, a working shower, a TV, and a view of the beach. The closest thing to a perk I had was a full fridge instead of a mini one. As the saying goes, "you pay for what you get", this place is cheap for that reason. You don't get any emails regarding check-in/check-out after your initial booking of the hotel. So just an FYI, however, you can call and find that info out. If you care about everything looking pretty or top of the line, then this isn't the inn for you! If you don't care about looks and want the basics, this hotel will get the job done. There were a lot of quirks in my room, to say the least, some of these include: a stink drain that was sticking sideways (It still worked though), Maintenance handy work on the bathroom frame (Hammer dents near the door frame), no hair dryer, no ceiling lights (they have a lamp and one near the door) no charlie bar for the balcony and the ouside frames/chairs needed wipped down from the pollen. I also found it hilarious that there are no photos/paintings/ on the white walls. Just blank, use your imagination, I suppose lol. However, something about the quirks above made it feel oddly more roomy/lived-in? Like you were staying at a college dorm instead of a hotel. The staff was very nice and considerate. I had some trouble with my card reader, and they were very sweet in helping me out. Alongside, when I told staff about the above room quirks, they seemed to jump on the case for fixing the above. Which surprised me, so hopefully, by telling the staff, it will be better for the future.
